Which Jobs Would Allow Me to Use my Language Skills?

Employers need linguists - you can double or triple their market reach if you can conduct your job in several languages. You are worth more money to a company if you are a lingusit. Whether you are a scientist, a designer or a medic, you can reach more people in your field when you speak several languages.

Post Brexit = shortage of linguists in the UK

'We will need to reach out, within and beyond Europe, to maintain and improve our economic position, to build trust, strengthen our international influence and cultural relationships, and to keep our country safe. The extent to which we can do this in the long term depends greatly on the ability of our young people to understand and connect with people around the world. International and intercultural awareness and skills are crucial for the UK’s success on the world stage. They are also crucial in enabling the UK’s next generation to play a meaningful role in a networked world.'

Brexit’s impact on migration is said to potentially lead to a “language gap” in the British employment market. - “Many U.K. employers who require multilingual staff are becoming increasingly unsettled as fewer and fewer linguists are emerging from our education system just as Brexit uncertainty looks to be deterring workers relocating here from the EU,”

Bill Richards, U.K. Managing Director of INDEED RECRUITMENT.
